  A dream became true as two young pilots took off to fly around the world.

  Now they were really dreaming big.They were planning to take off this September on an around-the-world flight.And all went well, the 21-year-old pilots at last broke a world record by becoming the youngest to fly by themselves around the Earth.

  As they circled the world in their small, twin-engine airplane, they would be taking plenty of kids along for the ride, because students could follow their flight by way of the Internet.The flight took three months and made about 32 stops.

  Their plane was highly versatile (多用途的).Dan said, “It can take off from a muddy strip in Bali, the deserts of Egypt, the jungles of Africa, yet it can still cross the ocean.”

  Dan, a commercial pilot and flight instructor, recently graduated from the University of Rochester New York State.Chris is a three-year student at Rice University in Houston, Tex.

  The purpose of their project, called World Flight 2000, was to make education more interactive and to encourage young people to follow their dreams no matter how challenging they are.

  Said Dan:“We want to share the spirit of flying and show students that anything is possible with a good education, persistence and perseverance.”

  At each stop, the two pilots talked with students about their trip.They also visited schools all over the United States to tell about their adventures.

  “We’ve wanted to fly since we could remember,” they said.“We started flying before we were driving.”

A good modern newspaper is an extraordinary piece of reading.It is remarkable first for what it contains:the range of news from local crime to international politics, from sport to business to fashion to science, and the range of comment and special features(特写)as well, from editorial page to feature articles and interviews to criticism of books, art, theatre and music.A newspaper is even more remarkable for the way one reads it:never completely, never straight through, but always by jumping from here to there, in and out glancing at one piece, reading another article all the way through, reading just a few paragraphs of the next.A good modern newspaper offers a variety to attract many different readers, but far more than any one reader is interested in.What brings this variety together in one place is its topicality(时事性), its immediate relation to what is happening in your world and your locality now.But immediacy and the speed of production that goes with it mean also that much of what appears in a newspaper has no more than transient(短暂的)value.For all these reasons, no two people really read the same paper:what each person does is to put together out of the pages of that day’s paper, his own selection and sequence, his own newspaper.For all these reasons, reading newspaper efficiently, which means getting what you want from them without missing things you need but without wasting time, demands skill and self-awareness as you modify and apply the techniques of reading.

  A good modern newspaper is an extraordinary piece of reading.It is remarkable first for what it contains:the range of news from local crime to international politics, from sport to business to fashion to science, and the range of comment and special features(特写)as well, from editorial page to feature articles and interviews to criticism of books, art, theatre and music.

  A newspaper is even more remarkable for the way one reads it:never completely, never straight through, but always by jumping from here to there, in and out glancing at one piece, reading another article all the way through, reading just a few paragraphs of the text.

  A good modern newspaper offers a variety to attract many different readers, but far more than any reader is interested in.What brings this variety together in one place is its topicality(时事性), its immediate relation to what is happening in your world and your locality now.But immediacy and the speed of production that goes with it mean also that much of what appears in a newspaper has no more than transient(短暂的)value.

  For all these reasons, no two people really read the same paper:what each person does is to put together out of the pages of that day's paper, his own selection and sequence, his own newspaper.For all these reasons, reading newspaper efficiently, which means getting what you want from them without missing things you need but without wasting time, demands skill and self-awareness as you modify and apply the techniques of reading.
